NEWS DICARLO performs with The Michael Jackson Immortal Touring Band

Description:

On Friday December 15th 2012 DICARLO received a call from Mike Phillips asking if he´d like to perform at a special event at the Quasimodo on December 17th. Mike said, that Jonathan “Sugarfoot” Moffett” their drummer wouldn´t be able to make it, and asked if DICARLO could do the gig. He also needed a good bass player, and if DICARLO could find someone, because their bass player Don Boyette wouldn´t be there either. DICARLO organized Ramani Krishna on bass, and Mike Russell on guitar. They learned the entire program in 24 hours. DICARLO played 1 1/2 hours of the set, and the great Jonathan “Sugarfoot” Moffett did manage to show up and join the band for for the last 30 minutes. It was a night to remember.

King of Pop is a compilation album by American recording artist Michael Jackson released in commemoration of Michael Jackson’s 50th birthday. The album differs significantly in each country it was released because fan voting was employed to determine the songs for each country’s version. The album’s title comes from the title Jackson acquired approximately 20 years earlier. The album’s launch was made public on June 20, 2008 with the official announcement of the Australian version. The first release came with the German edition (which is identical to the Swiss edition) on August 22, 2008.,,;,
